1. Introduction / Preamble

​

These general terms and conditions apply to all offers, deliveries, and services of the small business Nonsensevent, Conscious events in Crete, represented by Marieke Rodehorst (Owner).

Our contractual partners are hereinafter referred to as the client, and Nonsensevent, Conscious events in Crete as the contractor.

​

2. Conclusion of Contract

 

2.1. Offers from the contractor to the client are always non-binding unless expressly stated otherwise in written form. The contract is concluded upon the client's acceptance of the offer.

 

2.2. After the client's acceptance of the offer, the contractor is authorized to conclude contracts with third parties in connection with the event to be carried out on behalf and for the account of the client. The contractor is entitled to engage third parties to fulfill the contractually owed services.

 

 

3. Client's Contractual Obligations

 

3.1. The clients support the services of the contractor by jointly specifying in writing with the contractor the ideas and wishes in the Special Performance Description and fulfilling their obligation to cooperate.

 

3.2. If the client is in default with the fulfillment of its contractual obligations, especially payment obligations, the contractor is not bound by the agreed deadlines and dates.

 

​

4. Prices

 

4.1. The company is subject to VAT and therefore invoices VAT to its customers.

 

4.2. If the price of an individual cost element (e.g., a preliminary product or several) changes, the price of the end product also changes, but only to the extent that the price change of the respective preliminary product affects the price of the end product proportionally.

 

4.3. In the event of unforeseen circumstances such as increases in raw material costs or general price increases due to inflation, prices may deviate from those in the cost estimate.

 

5. Payment

The timeliness of payment is determined not by the dispatch, but by the date of receipt of the payment by us or the credit at the payment location.

 

5.1. Payment Default If circumstances become known to the contractor after the conclusion of a contract that call into question the creditworthiness of the clients, especially if they suspend their payments or a check issued by them is not honored, the contractor is entitled to make all claims due and payable.

​

10.1. If the implementation of the event is prevented in whole or in part for reasons attributable to the client or if canceled by the client, the client bears all costs incurred up to the time of cancellation. For open-air events, the client bears the weather risk.

​

10.3. Termination of this contract is legally permissible for both parties for extraordinary reasons. Examples of such reasons include:

10.4. Termination must be made in writing to the other contracting party in any case.

 

10.5. In the event of the termination and the termination not caused by the contractor, the contractor shall reimburse the customer for services rendered to third parties from the customer's payments, provided that they are reimbursed by the respective contractual partners.

10.6. In the event of termination or termination not caused by the contractor, the customer shall reimburse the contractor for the expenses incurred up to the time of termination/withdrawal, as well as any expenses related to the contract. In addition, the contractor is entitled to claim a lump sum reimbursement of expenses. Instead of the reimbursement of expenses, the contractor is entitled to claim the actual expenses incurred. The assertion of payment claims remains unaffected.
